Robin Hood Was Right
A Guide to Giving Your Money for Social Change
Langbeschreibung
Last year, Americans donated $150 billion to charity. Giving has never been more popular, possible-or, for many, more confusing. There are oceans of need, mountains of requests, and often little time for the consideration needed to give thoughtfully and effectively. "Change, not charity!" is this book's enthusiastic theme. Long-time activists and givers, authors Chuck Collins and Pam Rogers show that traditional charity most often reinforces the status quo and maintains the dynamics of dependency and control. The progressive ethic of giving endorsed in this book, on the other hand, offers detailed ways to address the root causes of societal problems. With numerous organizational listings and hundreds of helpful suggestions, Robin Hood Was Right is a fun, user-friendly guide for the socially conscious giver, whether one is able to give annually $500 or $5,000,000.
CHUCK COLLINS, a bereaved parent, attorney, and former police commander lectures on the devastating impact of child loss. As members of The Compassionate Friends, Chuck and his wife Kathy of Fairfax, Virginia assist families grieving their children's deaths. They have two sons: David and Christopher and hold onto love for their daughter, Tiffanie Amber.
